i7 in xeon mobo?

[mojohinkey]

I recently got my hands on a couple of 3-5 year old servers, one of which runs an 1155 i7 and the other an 1155 xeon (on a xeon board). the mobo in the i7 is fried and I intend on making a second gaming rig with some other parts I've got lying around. I was just curious as to whether the i7 is compatible with a xeon board of the same chips, and as to whether or not installing the i7 could damage the board at all.

No because i7 processors don't have ECC memory support which is a requirement on server boards.
